• Collaborative Planning: Work closely alongside the wider Year 6 teaching team and utilize pro-rata protected PPA time to keep lesson momentum seamless.

• Positive Environment: Apply the school's behaviour policy consistently, fostering an inclusive, safe, and welcoming classroom culture.

What We Are Looking For

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) with a proven track record of successful teaching in Key Stage 2 (Year 6 experience is highly desirable).

• Strong subject knowledge of the upper KS2 national curriculum, particularly in reading, writing, and mathematics.

• An ability to build rapid, positive relationships with pupils, parents, and staff.

• A nurturing, resilient, and trauma-informed approach to supporting diverse learning needs.
